Dear friends,
In the year 2005 we marked fifth anniversary of the establishment of the International Visegrad Fund. For five years the Fund has been supporting the best Visegrad projects in the fields of culture, science, education, promotion of tourism as well as cross-border cooperation and youth exchange. We have tried to create a network of people and institutions in our countries that know each other, are in touch with each other, and organise events together.
What are the results? During the years 2000-2005 the Fund supported over 1000 projects and granted 140 scholarships in total amount over 11 million Euros. These projects were enormously diverse, ranging from those that make the newspaper headlines to small local events. We appreciate them all and treat them the same way, as they all help to develop and activate civil society in the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia.
After five years of operation, the International Visegrad Fund is a stable and solid institution and - equally as important - employs absolutely transparent principles and rules for financing its activities and projects. As a result of raising interest in the Fund's programmes and growing significance of the Fund's activities, the V4 governments' contributions more than tripled since the Fund's establishment - from 1 million Euros in the year 2000 to 3,2 million Euros in 2006.
Regardless of its regional character, the Fund's activities outreach the V4 countries. Since 2003 we have been granting scholarships to postgraduate students coming from neighbouring non-EU states (Belarus, Croatia, Romania, Russia, Ukraine, Yugoslavia).In 2005 we have designed also a special scholarships programme focusing solely on Ukraine. There are both political and moral arguments in favour of cooperation with our eastern and south-eastern neighbours: The West has supported us for many years,so now that we are in the European family, we should repay it by helping those who need it on their way to unifying Europe.
I would like to thank to all of our collaborators and especially to our applicants for your great interest and variety of inventive proposals, which we received in 2005. The quality and number of submitted as well as supported projects has been increasing everyyear since the Fund's establishment and we will do our best to make this trend continue.
Dear friends, we will always welcome your ideas, suggestions and proposals, which would lead to even better cooperation between you and the Fund.
Yours,
Andrzej Jagodziński, IVF's Executive Director

In the year 2005 the IVF continued in its mission to promote regional cooperation among the Visegrad countries and to support joint projects in the fields of culture, education, science, youth exchange, support of tourism and cross-border cooperation. The total budget of the Fund in 2005 was 3 million Euros.
The Standard and Small grants programmes remained the main instruments of the Fund's work. The Fund received 704 applications out of which eventually supported 301 projects - 172 Standard and 129 Small ones. The total amount spent on the projectswas 2.266.864 Euros: 1.804.809 Euros on Standard and 462.055 on Small grants.
In 2005 the Fund focused on its scholarship programmes, mainly by extending the In-Coming and Intra-Visegrad schemes and by launching a special programme for Ukrainian postgraduate students. The IVF awarded altogether 25 Intra-Visegrad, 15 Out-Going and 12 In-Coming scholarships. The Ukrainian scholarships programme was received very positively and out of 108 applicants the selection committee chose 29 scholars who would spend a year at one of the universities in the Visegrad region.The Fund allocated on its 2005/06 scholarship programmes 538.500 Euros, which more than doubled the amount used the year before.
The Visegrad Strategic Programme was launched in 2005 and two long-term projects were selected under this new scheme. The allocated amount was 110.000 Euros.
